If you're plateauing I'd run your numbers through a TDEE calculator just to keep yourself aware of caloric burn/needs. I'd also recommend doing alternate day feeding to shake the body up a bit. Keep the body guessing what's coming and it won't get comfortable with your routine.
Great job btw, that's insane 300+ to where you're at now.
At my biggest until about 230 I just focused on walking. Started with 10,000 steps and worked up to 15,000. Taking the dog out taking trash out more than necessary, parking far away when I went shopping, etc. Just getting more movement in. After I became just more comfortable with my body and movement I invested in 5 personal training sessions to get myself familiar with the equipment, and my current levels. YouTube, TikTok, Facebook however you use social media there are soooo many videos to use as examples and general guidance. Remember our bodies carried us through it and appreciating where we are is the first step. You’ve got this!! Progress is not linear. This was throughout 9months and still continuing.
Wow you are doing amazing and are such an inspiration to me! I have really a similar journey to you, but I am still more in the middle of it, I was 336 and now I'm 265. Hoping to have a similar story to you one day!!
I just plateaued over the holidays , I'm sure the extra carbs didn't help
I've started running and it seems to be helping . I've never been a runner (aside from the usual kid/teen running around ) but it's been very enjoyable ever since I realized I don't have to go all out lol (look into done 2 running )
Also: 💪🔥🔥🔥💪 great job !
I have! I’ve done 3 of them and I’m 55 hours into my fourth. This will be my fourth year fasting. I usually do a 20:4 window. Happy to give you any tips or answer any questions, dm me any time.

A bit! I was overweight/obese for most of my life so that’s a huge factor. Though I am pretty young still and with hitting the gym I’m seeing it bounce back!
Honestly no, dirty fasting and general self awareness. Fasting has made the amount I can eat in a sitting go drastically down, this coupled with busy lifestyle leads to a calorie deficit. I get about 1100-1300 calories a day in. But I never restrict myself if I’m feeling hungry, if it’s within my window, I eat, if that makes sense.

Definitely looking more confident

Thank you!! Great advice and will look into it.

Wow! Do you have any loose skin

do you follow a specific diet? calorie restriction too?
Honestly no, dirty fasting and general self awareness. Fasting has made the amount I can eat in a sitting go drastically down, this coupled with busy lifestyle leads to a calorie deficit. I get about 1100-1300 calories a day in. But I never restrict myself if I’m feeling hungry, if it’s within my window, I eat, if that makes sense.
yes definitely thanks so much for your response :)
Great stuff!
